A casual handwritten script with brush-pen construction and a lively, slightly right-leaning rhythm. Strokes show natural pressure changes and tapered terminals, with rounded joins and occasional angular kicks that keep the line moving. Letterforms are compact and tall overall, with small counters and a low x-height feel in the lowercase; ascenders rise prominently and descenders are long and curvy. Spacing is irregular in a natural way, and connectivity varies—many letters link in words, while others break for readability—creating an informal, drawn-on look.
Well suited to short-to-medium headlines where a human voice is needed: social posts, packaging callouts, café or boutique signage, invitations, greeting cards, and pull quotes. It performs best at display sizes, where the textured stroke endings and lively connections remain clear.
The tone is warm, personal, and energetic, like quick marker lettering on a note, label, or menu board. Its bouncy movement and soft curves give it a cheerful, conversational feel rather than a polished, formal one.
Designed to capture an authentic brush-script handwriting impression with quick stroke energy and approachable charm, balancing loose, hand-drawn variability with enough consistency to read smoothly in phrases.
Uppercase forms read as simplified, handwritten capitals that sit comfortably alongside the lowercase, and the numerals match the same brushy, single-stroke logic. The overall silhouette is narrow and vertical, which helps words feel compact while still expressive.
